Preparing the Search Page and Creating the Search All Link

In this task, you'll begin preparing the search page by removing now-obsolete content from the tours page. As it stands, tours.asp contains static listings of many of the tours. Now that you have built a dynamic listing of the tours (tour_detail.asp), this content is no longer needed on tours.asp. However, the navigation bars throughout the site point to tours.asp under the Find Tours link, so this page is perfect for containing the search interface.

The first activity, not surprisingly, is to delete all of the static tour listings. Next, you'll mock up the overall page layout. Finally, you'll create the first of three search interfaces, though in this case, “search interface” is an overstatement: It is a simple hyperlink to tour_detail.asp that causes that page to display all tours.
